Killing Demons: Upgrading from Calligraphy

Chapter 36 The Demon
Water from the Nu River was drawn out of thin air.

Drowned tens of thousands of troops.

The prescription clerk's words caught Qi Xiu's attention. He twirled the medicinal materials in his hand and thought to himself.

It seems that Magistrate Li of Qingliu County is not a mortal.

After purchasing the necessary medicinal materials, Qi Xiu directly asked the pharmacist to hire a car to deliver them to his home because the quantity was relatively large.

Now he doesn't have to be as cautious and troublesome as before.

At least with his current strength.

There are not many people in Baohe County who can threaten him.

After buying the medicinal materials, Qi Xiu simply wandered around the market.

In the past 20 days, except for going out to buy medicinal materials, he had almost no interaction with anyone.

Although I consider myself mentally healthy.

But a long period of closed life does require some extra excitement to dilute it.

Maybe it’s been a long time since I took such a leisurely walk.

Qi Xiu walked very slowly, browsing every corner at will.

Unconsciously the sky turned dark.

Bright lanterns and candles were lit in the city.

It is the Qiaoyuan Festival.

This is a festival similar to the Mid-Autumn Festival in previous lives, which aims at family reunion. Hanging Qiaoyuan flowers at the door of the home prays for the safety and health of the family.

So today, there are many vendors selling Qiaoyuan flowers in the market.

Picked up a Qiaoyuan flower that looked like a lotus but was made of colorful paper.

Qi Xiu thought about whether he should buy a few flowers back.

It’s a holiday anyway.

While Qi Xiu was thinking about it, a young scholar with a delicate face walked past him and accidentally bumped his shoulder.

"I'm sorry." He bowed his head and apologized, then turned around and continued walking.

"and many more."

Putting down Qiaoyuanhua, Qi Xiu suddenly called out to the little scholar.

"What's wrong?" The little scholar frowned and turned his head.

"Oh, it's nothing. You can go." After looking at the little scholar, Qi Xiu smiled and waved his hand.

"Sick."

After muttering something, the little scholar turned around and left quickly.

Staying where he was and watching the little scholar's leaving figure, Qi Xiu raised his right hand thoughtfully, with a [Town] character stuck to his palm.

The [Town] character does not respond, indicating that it is not a demon or an external evil.

But if it weren't for these dirty things.

Why does this little guy smell so strongly of human blood?

As his medicine refining skills continue to improve, Qi Xiu's sense of smell has been passively enhanced.

Otherwise, the ingredients in the decoction and pills cannot be easily identified.

When the little scholar passed by him just now.

He smelled a very strong smell of human blood.

I opened my mouth to call him out just to hear if there was any mistake.

Human life lawsuits are handled by the yamen, so I don't need to worry about it.

He shrugged his shoulders and did not dwell too much on this matter. After buying some delicious snacks at the market, Qi Xiu walked home in the night.

But Qi Xiu didn't notice.

When he bought things and was about to go back.

A pair of strange eyes were staring at him secretly in the corner. The bloodshot eyes revealed a strange expression.

……

“I’ve almost finished the recipe for the red blood medicinal wine.

In two days, go to the Ghost Market Treasure Ship to find the profiteer.

Just give me the secret book of Red Heart Palm and just give it back.

If not, I will set up a stall next to you.

I will sell the red blood medicinal wine at half price. Buy one bottle and get one free. I can also get a [-]% discount if introduced by an acquaintance. I don’t think you will give it. "

Holding a piece of jujube mud cloud cake and stuffing it into his mouth, Qi Xiu had his mouth full of icing sugar.

While muttering about how to deal with the profiteer selling medicinal wine.

A figure suddenly appeared from the corner of the alley.

It was the little scholar from before who smelled of blood.

Looking at the young scholar standing in front of him in surprise, Qi Xiu licked the candy at the corner of his mouth:
"What are you doing, robbing?"

"Haha, that's right." With a devilish smile on his lips, the little scholar nodded slowly.

With a serious look on his face, Qi Xiu silently took two steps back:

"Robbery for wealth or... robbery for sex?"

"..."

"Death-killing!"

Suddenly he raised his hand and sprayed out a large ball of light pink mist, and the little scholar sneered.

"Heavenly Orchid, Ye Qing, Nine-Leaf Three-Star Grass, Black-scaled Snake Venom...hiss, and actinolite...

What kind of thing do you think this is?

Who puts actinolite in their drug? "

Frowning and naming a series of medicines, Qi Xiu criticized the young scholar whose expression suddenly changed.

Hearing the name of the medicine and seeing Qi Xiu safe and sound, the little scholar's heart skipped a beat.

not good!

With a roll of his eyes, he turned around and ran away.

whoosh-

The sound of breaking through the air sounded, and the little scholar's whole body seemed to be frozen in place for an instant, and he froze in place, motionless.

After punching acupuncture points from the air to restrain the young scholar who was up to no good, Qi Xiu stepped forward with a smile.

"I didn't look for you, but you came to look for me.

In this case, let's have a good chat. "

Qi Xiu patted the young scholar's shoulder in a friendly manner, took his collar with one hand and dragged him slowly into the depths of the dark alley.

……

"You mean, in just seven days, you have killed seven people, one every day?"

The pale little scholar was leaning on the corner, sweating profusely as if he had just been fished out of the water.

"Yes." The little scholar nodded weakly.

Looking at this young man who was younger than himself with a heavy expression, Qi Xiu's eyes flashed with murderous intent.

He grabbed the little scholar by the neck and pulled him up.

"Go, take me to your house."

After experiencing Qi Xiu's torture methods, the young scholar became more honest.

The two of them walked in the thick night.

Passing through half of Baohe County, entering several deep and narrow alleys, we stopped in front of a hidden and run-down courtyard with most of the entrance covered by a big tree.

He casually pulled off the thumb-thick brass lock on the door.

The little scholar's scalp went numb at the sight of Qi Xiu's terrifying hand strength.

boom -

Push open the heavy courtyard door.

The wind chime swayed.

A low and depressing chant flowed into Qi Xiu's ears.

hum!
The character [Town] in his arms shines brightly, majestic and arrogant, suppressing this strange force tyrannically.

The yard is covered with messy and twisted vegetation, and the surrounding walls are covered with cracks covered with moss and vines.

A thick sense of coldness and malice lingered in the entire courtyard.

Slowly scanning the courtyard that exuded silence and uneasiness, Qi Xiu's eyes suddenly locked onto the main room directly opposite.

Lifting the young scholar up, Qi Xiu frowned and asked in a low voice:
"How dare you worship the demon!?"

I saw a desk placed in the center of the main room behind the dilapidated door panel.

On the desk, a statue of a fox demon wearing a long robe, a stiff smile on his face, and making seals with one hand was staring strangely ahead.

And around the fox demon statue, seven shriveled and blackened corpses were scattered.

"What kind of monster! That's Lord Fox Fairy! Lord Fox Fairy, please save me!"

After struggling hard, the little scholar's strength suddenly became extremely strong. With a sudden exertion, he actually broke free from him.

"Master Fox Immortal, Lord Fox Immortal!"

With a face full of enthusiasm, the little scholar smiled crazily and ran towards the fox demon statue.

whoosh-

A stone suddenly penetrated the air, with a terrifying force that penetrated the golden cracked stone, and pierced the little scholar's knee.

Blood splattered.

The little scholar fell to the ground with a thud, stirring up a large amount of dust.

Expressionlessly, he walked to the little scholar who was crawling forward with gritted teeth. Qi Xiu was just about to lean over and catch him.

A pale shadow suddenly emerged from his body.

The biting wind suddenly picked up.

He was going to drill into Qi Xiu's seven orifices.

"Humph!"

With a cold snort, Qi Xiu's eyes were blazing with the bright sun. The character "Zhen" in his arms revived magically, and golden light seeped out of his clothes.

Like a big hand, it slapped the pale figure's face hard.

"No wonder the [Town] character didn't respond before. It turns out that you, a charlatan, is possessing a living person."

Staring at the ghost that was blowing like white smoke in front of him, Qi Xiu's expression was solemn.

Did that demon finally couldn't help but reach out to Baohe County?
